C631 Ancient Books
Crack!
Yang Xuan put his fingers together and poked a hole in the side of the board. Inside, he found an ancient thread-bound book with yellow paper.
Yang Xuan carefully took out the book and opened it. He found some messy symbols inside, like some kind of language.
However, these symbols were very strange. Yang Xuan was proficient in many languages, but he had never heard of such symbols before. They were like words made up of countless little tadpoles, densely written in a book.
What was this thing?
Yang Xuan frowned slightly. He looked at it for a long time, but still could not figure out what it was.
In the end, he simply stuffed this thing into his body and planned to take it back to study it slowly. Now, he had to deal with the matter in front of him first.
Slowly turning around, the old witch was so scared that she quickly leaned back and said, "Oh right, I suddenly remembered that when I found them, there was another detail."
"But I forgot about it because it took too long. Give me ten minutes, just ten minutes. I'll definitely remember it!"
Yang Xuan smiled faintly, "This stalling tactic of yours is useless. Not to mention ten minutes, even if I give you ten more hours, your reinforcements will not come."
As he spoke, he reached out a hand to grab the other party's hair and dragged him out like a dead dog.
When the old witch saw the situation outside, she was so scared that her face turned pale, and her eyes were filled with despair and fear.
In the open space at the entrance, there were at least a few dozen corpses that were still steaming.
These people were the security guards of the orphanage. To be more precise, they were the thugs that she had raised, and every one of them was vicious and merciless.
The reason why the old witch dared to be so arrogant in Xuan City was because she had a group of outlaws who dared to risk their lives under her command.
When Yang Xuan was studying the sandalwood box, the old witch took the opportunity to secretly send a message.
However, she waited right and right, but no one came in. She never would have thought that these people had already died outside the door!
"How are the children?"
Yang Xuan asked Yunque and Haitang.
The two girls understood what Yang Xuan meant and replied, "Master, don't worry. The children are sleeping, so we didn't disturb them."
Yang Xuan nodded and said lightly to the two girls, "I'll wait for you in the car outside."
After Yang Xuan left, a cold glint flashed in the eyes of the two girls. The old witch was so scared that she trembled. "Please let me go, I won't dare to do it again..."
Whoosh -
Asiatic Apple stabbed into her mouth and gently pulled her tongue away.
Immediately after, a silver light flashed and the air was filled with the smell of blood. The two women poured out the anger that had been suppressed in their hearts for many years. The scene was simply unimaginable...
Yang Xuan sat in the car outside the door and gave Old Slave confidence. He told Old Slave to immediately arrange for people to come and clean up the mess.
After the two women got into the car, Yang Xuan only smiled and did not ask them what had happened to the old witch.
This was because the fate of the old witch could be guessed with her toes. Even if it was just a thin piece of paper, Skylark and Haitang's sword techniques could be cut in half from the side.
The old witch had probably already turned into a bloody skeleton.
"We might have to stay in Xuan City for another two days. There's still a large group of children in the orphanage, so we can't leave them alone."
Yang Xuan said.
"Master, there's no need to go through so much trouble."
Skylark suddenly said, "We know a person. He will definitely take good care of the children."
In a dilapidated house not far from the orphanage, the two girls gently knocked on the door. An old voice came from inside, "Who is it?"
The door opened, and it was a skinny and withered old man. His face was sunken, and it was obvious that he had been malnourished for a long time. However, his gaze was especially gentle.
"May I ask who you are looking for?"
The old man saw three strangers standing outside the door, and he could not help but feel puzzled.
When the two women saw the old man, their eyes reddened slightly, and a rare trace of tenderness appeared in their eyes.
"Uncle Li, do you still recognize us?"
Skylark asked softly.
"Hmm? You are?"
The old man had a puzzled expression.
Asiatic Apple reminded, "There was once when we were locked up in a dog cage by the old witch and didn't give food. It was you who secretly gave us steamed buns every night. Uncle Li, did you forget?"
The old man was stunned. He took a step forward and stared at the two girls for a while before carefully sizing them up. He said excitedly, "Yunque Haitang, it really is the two of you! The heavens have eyes! I didn't expect that the two of you were still alive. You've grown so big! Stop standing at the door! Hurry up and enter the house! "
Uncle Li was the only good person in the orphanage.
If it wasn't for him, the children in the orphanage probably wouldn't even be able to eat buns every day.
He was also very angry at the old witch's actions, but he didn't have the strength to contend with her. He could only do his best to make the children live a little better.
He was also the only spiritual sustenance for the children in the orphanage.
Back then, the old witch had locked up Skylark and Haitang in a dog cage, not giving them any food. If it wasn't for Uncle Li secretly giving them buns at night, the sisters would have starved to death long ago.
Later, a reporter came to interview them and asked who the children in the orphanage liked the most. All of the children unanimously said that it was Uncle Li.
This matter made the old witch extremely angry. The next day, she had the security guard beat Uncle Li up and then fire him.
These few years, Uncle Li still lived in that run-down small house, and he relied on picking up rubbish to make a living every day.
However, in his heart, he was still thinking about the children in the orphanage. Every night, he would buy some food with the money he saved. He wrapped it in plastic bags and threw it into the backyard wall to let the children eat more.
Seeing that Yunque and Haitang were still alive, Uncle Li was extremely excited. He held the two women's hands and said with tears streaming down his face, "The heavens really have opened their eyes. The two of you are actually still alive!"
"When the two of you ran out of the orphanage, I couldn't find you anywhere. I happened to run into Xuan City's coldest season. I thought the two of you were frozen to death!"
The two girls' eyes also turned red. "Uncle Li, I've wronged you for all these years."
Yang Xuan saw this scene from the side and guessed it in his heart. However, he also had a doubt.
He went forward and asked, "Uncle Li, I'm a friend of Yunque and Haitang. I want to ask you something. How did you know their names?"
In Yang Xuan's memory, shouldn't Zhou Ahhu be the one who gave the names Yunque and Haitang?
Uncle Li said, "When they were sent to the entrance of the orphanage, they had two names written on them. They had their birthdays and names written on them."
"The older sister's name is Haitang, and the younger sister's name is Yunque. However, the old witch didn't notice this, and her eyes were fixed on the sandalwood box."2
Yang Xuan looked at the two girls, and Haitang nodded and said, "Uncle Li is right. Yunque and Haitang have always been our names."
"Later on, when Godfather saved us, he asked us what our names were, and we told him. He didn't give us our names."
